Jack Foley (George Clooney) is a smooth-talking conman determined to bring down one last score. Federal Marshal Karen Sisco (Jennifer Lopez) is determined to stand in his way. Cue an entanglement that spans a prison break in Florida through to a shootout in Michigan, with the added complication of their mutual attraction.

Adapting Elmore Leonard’s classic crime novel for the screen, director Steven Soderbergh (Ocean’s Eleven, Traffic, Magic Mike) turned in one of the 90s’ coolest pictures in Out of Sight. Like many films from our Now That’s What I Call the 90s season, this film was not a huge hit on its original release, but has built up a much-deserved following in the intervening years. A film of effortless style and charm, it is the incredible chemistry between Lopez and Clooney – which recalls the classic Hollywood films of the 1940s – that makes this such an electrifying, seductive film experience, and one that just gets better with age.
